HTTP: Lotus Domino Accept Language Overflow
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in the IBM Lotus Domino Web Server. A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the Web server.
Extended Description
IBM Lotus Domino Server Web server is prone to a remote buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory buffer. An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected application, which usually runs with LocalSystem privileges. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial of service. The issue affects IBM Lotus Domino 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, and 8.0.
